Weekly mushi mushi Mail

This week has been the hardest of my mission so far, but
don't worry, because at the end of next month this email will say 'this month has
been the best of my life so far.'

Here is an experience,

At one point earlier in the week, I felt like I was going to
burn out. I had never put so much energy, time, thought and prayer in to
someone, who (at that time) seemed like she might not continue progressing. Our
other progressing investigator pulled out of our appointments, and didn't come
to church, and we haven't met with her in over a week now.

I feel like I have grown to learn a little the way the Lord
works with me, so discouragement was not an option!

We met with a lady who has been praying and reading for
weeks, since my second week when we first met her (but have been unable to
visit her). She has a baptisimal date for next month now, and I know this
Gospel will fit her every need, specifically her want to grow closer to God,
and, in her own words, "be saved."

The witness doesn't come until after the trial of faith, I
have a testimony of that for sure!

So yeah, lots happening here. My Japanese still sucks. And
today is transfer calls, so excuse me while I go throw up from being nervous as
I always am.
